スカート、ショートパンツなどのボトムスとニーソックス（サイハイソックス）を着用した際にできるボトムスとソックスの間の太ももの素肌が露出した部分を指すオタクの使う萌え用語。スラングの一種。#萌え用語としての絶対領域の節を参照。

It's a nerd word. If I had not guess most people don't even know what it means.

re:topic, It's two words, like the English "whale tail".

That said, 絶対領域 is great.

Woot 100% easy to see why.

Kinda baffling how small breasts is considered a fetish there and big tits ain't even on the list??? LOL. Sounds like i'd fit right in.

Here's the entry for 絶対領域 in MoeDic:

I can't agree with the article nest0r linked. It's wrong to include 絶対領域 in a fetish list when it's a human instinct.
